No.
You will need to lift and store. Gerbers are not able to live in below freezing temps.

From Hortiscope:

"Q: I planted a lot of gerbera daisies last year. They are in full sun almost all day and did extremely well. They were beautiful. I thought they were perennials and treated them as such. I cut them back in the fall after they stopped blooming. I haven’t seen anything leading me to believe that they are coming back this year. Is it too early to be seeing any signs of life from them or did I kill them? I am extremely distressed. I am trying really hard to create perennial gardens throughout my yard because of the time involved with planting annuals each year. Any advice or information you can pass on would be great! (e-mail reference)

A: Don't get stressed out because it isn't worth it. The gerbera daisy is an annual, so unless they had a chance to drop seed, you probably will not see anything come up again. Go to my Web site at www.ext.nodak.edu/extpubs/plantsci/landscap/h322.pdf for a list of annual and perennial flowers."

Sorry about that! Check your plant tags or seed packets more carefully next time when shopping. Good luck.

There are some varieties of Gerbera daisiese that are perinneals. I've seen a few different kinds in Minnesota, although they probably wouldn't last unless long in a Minnesota winter unless protected. But I would guess in KC you may have a shot at keeping them. Cut back the flower stem in the fall and you may get lucky keeping them over the winter. If you want to further protect them cover them with leaves, or grass over the winter.

No they will not. They are a annual
